new beautiful cases from Angelo Pelle. From the pictures i think there's no direct access to sd cards....

I agree that Angelo Pelle does beautiful work and I don't want to discourage other people from ordering his products. However, I recently had a bad experience with him, as noted in my thread about his wrist straps in this section of the forums. I know that he has a good reputation behind his products, so I would encourage everyone to form their own opinions. I may have just caught him on a bad day and he reacted poorly, I'm sure it can happen to anyone, but it definitely did not go over well with me.

I just ordered a Kenji. He said he is running about 3 weeks lead.image.jpeg I went with a double braid strap w/ leather wrap.

Dear dck22, what has been your experience with the Kenje half case for your X-Pro2 as far as the fit and usability (access to camera controls)? Your comment would be greatly appreciated as I am considering getting one. Kind regards, V23

I've ben using the Kenji half case for several months now. I couldn't be more pleased. The fit is perfect and I am able to access all controls easily. I opted for the tripod screw. This definitely increases the security of the X-Pro2 in the case. Battery change is easy through the hole in the bottom of the case. You only need to remove the case to get to the memory cards. I could NOT be happier with the case. Also, I've had several complements on the case. I always enjoy it when someone notices and comments on my equipment.

Thank you for your reply dck22, I will place order for a Kenji half case. I cannot see good reason for SD card slot opening in half case with camera having provision for two SD cards. Kind regards, V23.
